Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) technique is based on which of the following signals:

Electroencephalography (EEG)

Rapid Eye Movement (REM)

Blood-Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD)

Magnetoencephalography (MEG)

What is the advantage of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) compared to EEG?

Participants do not need to wash their hair after participating in the study

It has high spatial resolution

Both of the above

Which of the following brain regions is readily associated with behavior regulation?

Temporal cortex

Parietal cortex

Prefrontal cortex

Subcortical regions

Which of the following brain regions is readily associated with processing of rewards?

Striatum

Nucleus accumbens

Ventromedial prefrontal cortex

All of the above

Which of the following brain regions plays an important role in processing of emotions?

Nucleus accumbens

Amygdala

Caudate

Which of the following brain regions is considered to be an important part of the ‘social brain’ network?

Posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS)

Dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC)

Temporo-parietal junction (TPJ)

All of the above

With age, there are changes in brain function but no changes in brain structure.

Correct

Incorrect

During adolescence the connectivity between which brain regions is important for the regulation of emotions like fear?

Insula and striatum

Striatum and amygdala

Amygdala and prefrontal cortex

Prefrontal cortex and insula

What's the global pattern of structural brain development?

From back to front

From front to back

That is currently unknown

Testosterone relates to:

Increased alcohol use in boys

Increased risk taking in girls

Less anxiety in both boys and girls

All of the above are true

In scientific studies researchers often discriminate between the lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC, e.g., the dorsal LPFC) and the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC, e.g., the ventral MPFC or dorsal MPFC). Which image displays the medial prefrontal cortex and which image the lateral prefrontal cortex?

A = LPFC, and B = MPFC

B = LPFC, and A = MPFC

A and B are both the LPFC

A and B are both the MPFC

The neural correlates of social behavior often involve the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) and superior temporal sulcus (STS), which brain area is the TPJ and which is the STS?

Activation in a subcortical region the striatum is often shown to have age-related changes. Which image marks the striatum, and what other brain area is marked?
